The Sassafras Science Adventures Volume 4: Earth Science
The summer-long, science-filled, adventure-packed journey blows on with a look at the weather and more!
In The Sassafras Science Adventures Volume Four Earth Science, the zip-lining science adventure blows on for Blaine and Tracey Sassafras - and we want to bring you all along for the ride!
Join the Sassafras Twins as they travel to alluring locales to learn about weather.
Together, you will learn all about our planet as the twins zip around the globe. In the book, you will visit locations like:
- The plains of Oklahoma to learn about wind patterns and tornadoes;
- The mountains in Patagonia to discover more about snow and frost;
- And the open ocean to learn about coral reefs and currents!
The twins will meet a variety of local experts who help them along the way to learn about the different weather patterns and features found on the Earth.
We want you to enjoy learning about earth science, too!
And, we know that through every storm chase, arctic game, and bed-boat this living book will teach your students about our planet in a way that they’ll never forget!
We know this because thousands of readers have already told us so. Here is what one of our Sassy-Sci peeps had to say about the fourth leg of our adventure:
